Gene was born on January 6, 1954. He married the love of his life, Margaret Anne Johnson Hart, in September of 1984. Their son James Hollis was born a year later. Gene was always active in his community. He served as a Trustee of Tulip Street and East End United Methodist Churches, and Scoutmaster of Boy Scout Troop 3.
Gene was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He was a talented carpenter and restored over 150 old homes as a contractor in Nashville, Tennessee.
